C#2F#C#2F#
Verse1:
C#2F#
Baby’s Black Balloon makes her fly
C#2F#
I almost fell into that hole in your life
C#2F#
And you’re not thinking about tomorrow
A#G#F#
Cause you were the same as me
C#2D#2C#2 (C#2)
But on your knees
Bridge1:
C#2F#C#2F#
Verse2:
C#2F#
A thousand other boys could never reach you
C#2F#
How could I have been the one
C#2F#
I saw the world spin beneath you
A#G#F#
And scatter like ice from the spoon
C#2D#2C#2
That was your womb
Chorus1:
C#2G#F#C#2
Comin’ down the world turned over
C#2G#F#C#2
And angels fall without you there
C#2G#F#C#2
And I go on as you get colder
C#2G#C#2
Or are you someone’s prayer
Bridge1:
C#2F#C#2F#
Verse3:
C#2F#
You know the lies they always told you
C#2F#
And the love you never knew
C#2F#
Lots of things they never showed you
A#G#F#
That swallowed the light from the sun
C#2D#2C#2
Inside your room, yeah
Chorus2:
C#2G#F#C#2
Comin’ down the world turned over
C#2G#F#C#2
And angels fall without you there
C#2G#F#C#2
And I go on as you get colder
C#2G#F#C#
Or are you someone’s prayer
Bridge2: (with violin)
FF#A#C#2G#FF#A#D#2G#C#2C#F#A#
And there’s no time left for losing
G#
When you stand they fall
Chorus3:
C#2G#F#C#2
Comin’ down the world turned over
C#2G#F#C#2
And angels fall without you there
C#2G#F#C#2
And I go on as you get colder
C#2G#
All because I’m
C#2G#F#C#2
Comin’ down the years turned over
C#2G#F#C#2
And angels fall without you there
C#2G#F#C#2
And I go on to bring you home
C#2G#C#G#G#C#
All because I’m, all because I’m, and I’ll become
F#C#
What you became to me
